Las Vegas Raiders: Examining the latest 2021 NFL Mock Drafts

LAS VEGAS, NV - APRIL 29: An Oakland Raiders flag is shown during the team's 2017 NFL Draft event at the Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas sign on April 29, 2017 in Las Vegas, Nevada. National Football League owners voted in March to approve the team's application to relocate to Las Vegas. The Raiders are expected to begin play no later than 2020 in a planned 65,000-seat domed stadium to be built in Las Vegas at a cost of about USD 1.9 billion. (Photo by Sam Wasson/Getty Images) /

With the Senior Bowl getting underway this week in Mobile, Alabama, we are in full draft season as Las Vegas Raiders fans, which means keep the mock drafts coming. Some of the most prominent names in the draft community are beginning to drop their mock draft 1.0, and although there is a long way to go until April, it is nice to get a feel of what these experts are thinking.

All three of the mock drafts listed pick different players for the Raiders, so there doesn’t seem to be a consensus on who best fits Las Vegas. Of course, we know that the Raiders have no problem going against conventional wisdom when it comes to the draft, but the holes on this team are pretty obvious.

However, the question is, what issue do you address first?

There were other big mocks dropped this week, including Mel Kiper Jr.’s over at ESPN, but because it is behind a paywall, you will have to check that one out yourself. A hint, the Silver and Black added an edge rusher.

As the draft season gets underway, we look at the recent mock draft published and see what direction each expert thinks the Las Vegas Raiders should go.
